Post Superstar shake-up rosters are ready to prove that WWE made the right roster changes. Braun Strowman showed just a glimpse of his inhuman strength when he flipped an entire ambulance carrying Roman Reigns in what is shaping up to be a great feud. The build to Payback continues.

PROMO (In-Ring): Braun Strowman is starting off the show. All he's doing is bragging that he has destroyed Roman Reigns, and that he won't be here tonight. Now that Roman is gone, he will make his way through the roster and prove he is the Monster Among Men. Out comes GM Kurt Angle. Kurt announces there will be a match between Strowman and Reigns at Payback in two weeks. Strowman asks what he will be doing tonight, and Kurt says he should be suspended and gives him the night off. Strowman threatens that he wants more competition.. Or else. Then leaves.

PROMO (In-Ring): Samoa Joe recalls Seth Rollins' injury, and says that he is nothing more than a target from HHH. So for what Seth did to HHH & Stephanie at WrestleMania, when they face off at Payback it will be very personal.

PROMO (Backstage): Anderson and Gallows are backstage then Elias Sampson just walks through. Then they show Goldust and R-Truth walking to the ring, and they get demolished by Braun Strowman.

*Commercial Break*

PROMO (Backstage): A referee is backstage telling Strowman that he was told to take the night off. Strowman says he'll leave when he wants to, and then stands up and the ref takes off.

PROMO (In-Ring): Anderson & Gallows are making fun of Strowman taking out The Golden Truth saying he gave them the United Airlines treatment, and then say they still want a match. They get Enzo & Cass.

MIZ TV WITH DEAN AMBROSE: The Miz invites Dean Ambrose to his segment. Dean starts off by saying Cincinnati(his hometown) is better than Cleveland(Mizs' hometown). Miz calls Dean a disgrace to what a WWE Superstar is, but what gets him the most is that the WWE Universe loves him. Dean says that the way you dress doesn't matter, your brand doesn't matter. He's just Dean Ambrose. He doesn't care about movies or endorsements. He just loves what he does. While Miz is bragging, Dean is emptying his pockets and prepping for a fight, and thats exactly what this turns into.

PROMO (Backstage): Braun Strowman yells that he is leaving while dragging Kalisto saying that he is coming with him. He says that Roman Reigns is garbage, and throws Kalsito into a dumpster saying that he is garbage too. Then Braun get knocked to the ground by Big Show who says he should pick on someone his own size.

*Commercial Break*

Titus tells him to join the Titus Brand, and pitches some terrible gimmicks and gives him his card.

PROMO (Backstage): The Hardy Boyz are asked what feels different about WWE since their return. I'm just sad they aren't BROKEN. Then Cesaro & Sheamus come in and welcome them back and say that without the ladders, they will get their titles back.

RESULTS: Alexa Bliss wins via pinfall. (Pins Sasha Banks)THOUGHTS: I've been hard on the Raw Women's division lately. But this was really pretty good. Really hoping Alexa can be the first to hold the SmackDown and Raw Women's Championship. The way they've built Alexa since she came up has been amazingly well done.

PROMO (Backstage): Big Show is asked why he stopped Braun Strowman. Big Show says that Braun is getting a dose of his own medicine.

*Commercial Break*

PROMO (In-Ring): Curt Hawkins is in the ring wasting time. Being useless. Saying if you want to be a main event superstar you face Curt Hawkins. Then has his regular open challenge. Its answered by Finn Balor.

MATCH: Finn Balor vs. Curt Hawkins

*Commercial Break*

PROMO (Backstage): Jericho says that he didn't win his match earlier because he is focused on winning his match against Owens at Payback. Mike Rome is interviewing him, but Jericho is convinced its Tom Phillips. He goes to put him on the list, and Elias Sampson walks through playing his guitar again and Jericho puts him on the list instead.

PROMO (Sermon to the Snake): Bray Wyatt is here for some sort of promo towards Randy Orton. This is a classic Wyatt promo where he probes for anything that can scare Randy. He says that all of his fears will become real in their House of Horrors match.

*Commercial Break*

MATCH: Cesaro(w Sheamus) vs. Jeff Hardy(w Matt Hardy)

RESULTS: Jeff Hardy wins via pinfall.THOUGHTS: My expectations were very high for this, and this lived up to it. Jeff has still got it, and Cesaro has been and will continue to me champ material.

After the match, the two teams hug and shake hands.

*Commercial Break*

MATCH: Braun Strowman vs. Big Show

During the match, Braun hits a superplex on Big Show that makes the ring literally implode and sent the ref flying. Big time right there. Strowman eventually stands tall.
